Rump. I wonder how long before he has a true nervous breakdown
over it? He's so insecure as it is. Seeing thousands upon thousands of citizens marching in protest AGAINST him. Poor little pumpkin.

It really doesn't matter that much. They thrive on attention, positive or negative. Hate is still attention, and it means people care enough to give a damn.

What makes narcissists seethe is being ignored. In their heads, they're the center of the Universe so being hated and feared is just jealousy, but being relegated to the obscure western spiral of the galaxy? That's crazy-making.

Instead, he doubles down to attract more attention. Like a spoiled child, it doesn't matter if the attention is good or bad as long as he is at the center of it.
